Portfolio overview

Optum Services (ireland) Limited has been granted 101 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Optum Services (ireland) Limited at rank #3,632 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06N (COMPUTING ARRANGEMENTS BASED ON SPECIFIC COMPUTATIONAL MODELS). As a Foreign Corporation, Optum Services (ireland) Limited is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Optum sits between James Hardie Technology Limited (101 patents, rank #3,628) and SONY Corporation OF America (101 patents, rank #3,636) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 61.5/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 101 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Optum Services (ireland) Limited's 19.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 16 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Optum Services (ireland) Limited against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Optum's 101 grants land it in the top 3% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Optum ranks #3,632 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in G06N - see who else leads that technology area. G06N leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
